Eh Wii always seemed like the worst out of the three to me. I'm sure they sold well for the family factor. Weren't they cheaper also? I never moved on from the PS2 so it doesn't matter to me either way. I won't buy this console but it looks better than anything Nintendo has done since N64.

I would club you with my gamecube if i could. It would be easy. It has a handle.

*Luigi's Mansion is debatable. Not sure how I feel about it on the list.

I'm also going by fact that I asked if there was any real Mario Games on the WiiU. 3D seems to fit the general parameters.

have you ever played New Super Mario Bros... there is one on the Wii and Wii U... Super Mario 3D World on Wii U is just as good as the Galaxy games also... what in the holy hell are you talking about... Lost Levels is less of a real Mario game than any of those... you also listed Super Mario Bros 2 which is literally a completely different unrelated to the mario series game with some sprites and text changed

Yup. 3DS probably has another year of games in it, but the idea here is that if 3rd party support dries up again and Nintendo is the only main player developing games for the console, its all hands on one platform instead of two.

I feel like a lot of older people bought the wii system but never bought any games

At least half of them bought something. If Wii Sports sold 82.78 million (and wasn't always the pack in game), Mario Kart Wii sold 36.38 million, Wii Sports Resort sold 32.8 million, New Super Mario Wii sold 29.32 million and Wii Play sold 28.02 million. 8 of the top 10 best selling games of all time on a single format are NIntendo games and 5 of those are Wii games.

They're not killing the 3DS line I can assure you. It still prints money for Nintendo. This is simply a different system and may end up killing the 3DS like the Gameboy line but not for another 2-4 years after the launch of the Switch.

You won't see a 3DS game in holiday 2018 from Nintendo, apart from maybe Pokemon because GameFreak are always late to the party. It's not printing money, it's selling slowly even in Japan now.

Only way of happens is if the Switch bombs harder than the Wii U. This is what they have to do mostly because 3DS didn't live up to sales expectations.

Switch will be higher price then a 3DS but if its portability works as advertised then whatever excuse for 3DS exclusives wither away by sheer common sense. There would be no reason to not have a Pokemon game down the line for Switch, outside from some absurd spin control nobody will accept.

Switch's success is the end of Nintendo's console/portable parity mark my words. Even the rumors way back talked about Nintendo wanting to merge these fields.

And that's not even mentioning nuclear options I know Nintendo has like a Pokemon MMO or a Super Mario 'Universe' (Maker + Galaxy + 3D World multiplayer = $billions). The year Nintendo legit under performs they dick slap us with megatons until they get comfortable and do weird shit again. That has been the cycle for years.
